With So Many Public Places Around The World Closed,

museums and galleries are still keeping in touch,

last week social media was alive with floral offerings from cultural institutions around the globe. Since many are closed due to COVID-19, museums like the Guggenheim, MCA Chicago, and the New-York Historical Society, which began the botanical trend, exchanged sweet messages paired with virtual bouquets from their current collections, above “To: @LACMA, @MOCAlosangeles, @hammer_museum, @gettymuseum. We hope this bright splash of color, courtesy of @JeffKoons, brightens your day 💐 #MuseumBouquet Love, All the staff at The Broad“
